My Husband

I do not involve David in a lot of my posts because that is the way he likes it. The least amount of information about him the better but I want to share a little bit about him.  We have an incredible story that one day I will finally have all written down to share, especially for our children. It is a miracle that we found each other, at one moment of our lives one of us was on the west coast and the other was almost as far as you can get on the east coast of the states. Then many years later, we literally lived three minutes apart, staring up at the sky late in the evening stars, whispering to the God of Heaven to answer our prayers for our one true love.

David is my soul mate and ever lasting love.

We do not have mushy gushy love. LOL! We have a love that reaches to the inner parts of our souls that can only be satisfied by the art of discussion, intrigue, and the interesting act of being completely open and honest but with the ability to still be a mystery to one another. For us that has only been made possible through the Almighty God, because all other human forces have failed for us. Through our own manipulation or the manipulation of others, we were never satisfied, never fulfilled and never happy. Once we were made whole, by accepting never finding each other, that is the moment when our worlds collided and we became one almost in an instant.

David and I sharpen each other.

We challenge each other, we make each other better. Without his confidence in me, I never would have been able to accept the challenges I have faced within myself the last few years. I have faced abuse, insecurities, fears, and my many doubts. He helped build life into my soul that so many had destroyed. He gave me acceptance that no one else ever had and I did the same for him. We worked together and made a life that we are very happy with and protective of. He saw in me things that I didn’t know existed and he helped bring them out. David has been my solid foundation and has never led me astray.

Yet we both know that we are fully capable of failing each other and we do.

That is the amazing thing, we fail and yet we fully accept it, embrace it, acknowledge it and use it to make sure we do not fall into disillusionment. We have respect for each other and love to laugh with one another. We feel that our marriage is not possible without the hand of God keeping us intertwined with His love, the kind of love that has no agenda or selfish motive, without that we are not able to love happily. We have to continually lay that down but with David it isn’t something I struggle with, it just happens without thought. He makes it easy and enjoyable to live life with him, to raise our children with, and to be in peaceful content. He accepts all of my quirkiness, sassiness, sometimes insanity and  he continually motivates me. That is all I will share for now. :-)

US

our souls fought this world to find each other,
we settled, sacrificed, gave up and hurt others–looking.

dreams faded,
slowly swept away.

lives settled to a place–alone.
found our peace,
but still gaping was the hole.

day break!
instant unity!
we leaped from the earth.

flying eternity,
intertwined mission.

laughing all the while.
solid.

overflowing, abundance
galaxies of grandeur fulfilled.
